Suriname Pavilion

Where people and nature live in harmony

The small South American nation of Suriname is one of the greenest places on the planet, and not only because lush rainforests cover 93 per cent of its land area. As the student-designed Suriname Pavilion shows, it’s also a place where humanity lives in balance with the natural world – so much so that Suriname is one of the globe’s few carbon-negative economies. Here, you’ll embark on a multi-sensory journey into Surinamese landscapes, from a stroll under a shimmering waterfall to a night walk through the jungle, complete with the sounds of indigenous animals.
